Please check out my new track 'Optikal Assassin - Raining Blood (Ethereal Masacare Remix)' and post your comments here!!!


Thanks to Nick n Optikal. Wouldn't of made this tune without either of em.(Remix of a Remix. lol that sounds funny as hell.)

(This started out as his idea for the raining blood thing. I hope none of u guys mind that i finished the tune, specially optikal, but u gave me the project file and kinda said run with it so i did. If any of u do care let me know ill take it down. )

Anyways added different breaks, EQed different, arranged different and just a lot of stuff i guess. I tried to stay with the idea as much as possible so this is what turned out.Let me know

Even though it is a long track I found that it held my attention right to the end
I cant think of any thing to say about this because it sounds professional to me, perhaps this is why no one ells has commented so far

Pretty evil intro. I like the storm sounds. Interesting choice on that double bass kick. The bass sounds cool you should bring it up a little more mostley wht I hear are drums. Was that little girl voice part of the original? That's a seriously great vocal hit. Nice tune if the bass was more evident it would be the shit.

Same review:

Love the way you used Erina's vocals in the intro, and I loved the thunder you brought forward, def. alot more intense and alot harder. Like the drums alot, the bass is good and the breakdown is dope! You took this one to the next level! RESPECT! Z

I can send you the origional samples, I sent them to Optical Assin a wile back and he added alot, extra Synths and totally re-modeled the track and forwarded his ideas to Audio Assassin. Some where in there Nick and Erina Z were left out... Z

seems like lots of compression in the intro, although i could b wrng cause im far from pro.
but it sorta sounds like the original intro. drops abit loud, might need normalize the tune, so i doesnt blow any systems Tongue
drum arrangment is different, and some differ bassline arrangment.
good heavy shit.
nice reverb on the bass, nice n noticable in the break, and the dely on the vox is nice. break down is good. i dunno the drop is alright. could probably have change the bass riff to something more intense... although its not too bad with the synth behind it.
good shit. Bigup

thanks for the words man. glad you like it there for the most part. But it is normalized btw lol. There is a bit of compression on it, but nothing really major, just enough to limit it down so as not to clip, but still sound decent.

Yeah Anf0 is right the bass in the intro is too loud, causing the compressor to go into heavy gain reduction, which has a negative effect on the rest of the sounds.

The compression is heavy throughout the rest of the track too, but that's not such a big problem since the track aims for a very dirty and strong sound and that helps a lot in achieving it.

What is a problem is that the bass is stereo, if you want to get your tracks pressed on vinyl this will come out wrong.

Let's review:

Wow that panned bass is too loud!
Nice dark and mystical begining. thouh you might add an extra layer of volumed down hihats that will run faster beside these to add effect.

Great rhytm, and yeam the kick drives the compressor nuts. Looks like there lacks sounds in the spectre from 500-1000 Hz. The mix is clear, but like with a hole there. Try adding to the bass on those frequencies.

Takes too long. Ahh here is the break.
Nice sounds ya have here, but no dj friendly touches. Ahh here are, some hats. Well, not enuf if ya want yer tune played on parties Smile

Here is the beat again. Becomes boring dude, try some new combination of the kick-snare thing, or add a snare and put him on the normal 2 stepdnb line

ya know kick-snare--kicksnare

This second part ends too fast. Add a line or two, to make the mix more interesting. You don't have enuf melodies to support the music side of your tune. You have the drums alright, but no decent melodies, and even those can't be heard.

6/10 Bigup

Nice words guys. Unfortunatly i can't go back in change it, cause i had to reformat my pc these past few days and the file is corrupt on the dvd i burned so there is no getting the files back. I understand what you guys are saying for sure. I normally use cubase for writing tunes, yet i had to use FL for this one, and i was a little disoriented with it. Mixdown could of definatly been better, and more melodies would add a lot. All i can do is appericate the honest and try to apply it in the next tune, which i will do. Good comments again guys.
